- Auditor
- Cooper Parry Group Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Directors have reviewed and considered relevant information, including the annual budget and future cash flows in making their assessment. The Directors have concluded that they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The increase in revenue derives primarily from additional services included from the start of 2024. These additional services relate to operational reporting for performance, reliability and optimisation. In addition, growth was seen in Control Centre revenues, assisted from significant investment and expansion of the Control Centre that provides operational control services for client renewable energy generating sites. This Control Centre investment was completed at the end of 2024.”
- “There has been no material impact seen from Brexit with the supply of goods, when needed, being readily available.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
